“Personality begins where comparison ends.”
– Karl Lagerfeld

Style is in your hands. Fashion, health, leisure, emotion, and satisfaction are determined by you. Interpretation is personal and the key to confidence. I offer you my opinion in hope you venture outside of your comfortable box. Most importantly, remember, don't take anything too seriously. Just have fun with it.

Have a question?
Really, ask me anything, don't be shy. I'm not!

As you read, please excuse the mishaps. We're still under construction here. But I'll tell you this much, the tumblr is much cleaner than my apartment after several sleepless nights. Unfortunately I don't know how to clean a website, but I guess I could pick up my shoes....

Even though it’s just us girls, I think it’s important to make my guests feel special.  Heft and I don’t have room for a formal dining table that seats more than two, so I’ve made up our coffee table for dinner. 
In all seriousness, you can pick up place mats and cloth napkins from Neiman’s or Marshall’s, and as long as you put it together nicely, your guest will appreciate it.  As you continue to accrue items along the way, you will be able to mix and match the decor for different themes.  Obviously my theme here is spring, but if I changed the flowers and bows to a deep red, it could be a lovely fall table.
Total time to put this together: 10 MINUTES.  Ten little minutes.
Other notable items that make a good impression:

Consistent plates and silverware
Interesting stemware
Fresh flowers
Candles

If you’re on a budget, the best place to start is with plain white plates and good stemware.  Crate and Barrel has the best selection.
For extra points:

China 
Chargers
Crystal candle holders
Fresh flowers in the bathroom
